A new release of cgdb has been made today.

This includes the new feature of syntax highlight support for D applications.

Expect binary releases to become available in your next distribution release!


If anyone finds any bugs, do let me know.

Thanks,
Iain.

Could you please provide some more information for usage / installation?

on osx I was able to install it with:
brew install readline
./configure --with-readline=/usr/local/homebrew/Cellar/readline/6.2.4

1) however, running a simple hello world with rdmd --build-only -g main and then cgdb ./main doesn't seem to show any debugging symbols (line numbers etc). Is that because of the issue with the extra underscore produced in D mangling on OSX?

2)
on ubuntu, I can't get it to install:
./configure --with-readline=/some_path/libreadline.a
however it complains about ncurses not found, even with options such as:
 --with-ncurses=/some_path/libncurses.so

Which compiler are you using, dmd's?  I'm not sure how good dmd emits debugging symbols on OSX, you could try using -gc switch instead of -g.

Raise a bug with the revelant compiler.

I just built mine with:  ./configure --prefix=/usr

You should only require the following installed: autotools-dev, libncurses5-dev, libreadline6-dev
